Sarahi openly rolled her eyes, feeling like she got stuck with one of those 'eccentric' sorcerers. She almost laughed at her statement about not being considered an underling; if that much was true, then what was the entire point of taking in novitiates? Regardless of whatever pea-brained scheme the lady was up to, all she wanted was magic. If the magus wanted to be all 'mysterious' and weird then at the very least she could do something [i]interesting[/i]. Diadem chirped once in a while but remained relatively silent, opting to quietly crawl over Sarahi as they walked. They seemed wary of the other two novitiates, occasionally jingling to one another in what she could only assume was wild guesswork. Not surprising considering they opted to stick to her, but at least they were behaving properly enough that she could take in the sight of the pyramid. Now [i]this[/i] is what she wanted, even if she didn't get much time to look since Nevrakis decided she was suddenly in a hurry. Maybe she could take some time in the future to admire everything since this was her cult and all. The most interesting thing of the entire trip was probably the flame Nevrakis produced, the light barely illuminating anything. Diadem's light glowed, though their whispers dulled as Sarahi swore she saw a face in the walls. The chamber's heat was somehow worse than outside. Sarahi let out a slight cough, waving away any smoke near her. At least Nevrakis decided to grace them with an 'explanation' disguised as some sort of stupid wisdom. Obviously they had a lot to learn, that was what they were [i]supposed[/i] to do, but Sarahi was convinced the woman was nuts at this point. At this point she'd rather get taken advantage of--at least then she'd get [i]something[/i] out of the exchange. After some other boring stuff that she didn't care about, things got interesting again as the floor shifted. Of course once again she was proven that she really shouldn't get her hopes up about anything as they were presented with a pitifully tiny mushroom. This is what they came all the way here for? If her face wasn't already sketched in a frown then it definitely was now. This was their 'first lesson', although for the first time today Sarahi was not at all surprised once Nevrakis decided to leave--she would've been surprised if she actually decided to stay. [color=C4ADD8]"How exhilarating,"[/color] Sarahi commented dryly on the mushroom once the trio was alone. [color=C4ADD8]"Any ideas?"[/color] [/indent]
